Thu, 24 May 2018 12:44:48 -0500Sigsiu Online Business Index 2 FeedCreatorAudit of USAID/Sudan’s Civil Society Programhttp://developmentwork.net/component/sobi2/?sobi2Task=sobi2Details&catid=36&sobi2Id=149
Fighting in Sudan, particularly the Darfur region, has continued despite the signing of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (January 2005) and the Darfur Peace Agreement (May 2006). A well-informed civil society can contribute to peace and stability in Sudan. The policies of the Government of Sudan can be disseminated through print and broadcast media. Civic participation also plays a role in preventing and mitigating conflicts as people become aware of their rights and advocate their views.
This audit will (1) determine whether USAID/Sudan’s Civil Society Program achieved intended results and (2) assess the program’s impact.

Southern Sudan has the highest maternal mortality ratio in the world, and infant mortality is also unacceptably high. This critical health problem is largely attributable to low immunization rates for preventable diseases. To better address this issue, USAID’s Sudan Health Transformation Project expanded services, and, as a result, more than 2 million people have improved access to high-impact maternal, child, and family-planning services.
Although critical health infrastructure has improved, service delivery is still substandard, particularly in remote areas. USAID/Sudan’s Maternal and Child Health Program engages local leaders and village health committees to educate and mobilize communities concerning the importance of pregnant women seeking prenatal care services and increasing the child immunization rate. Funding for this program was $12.4 million for FY 2008 and $17.9 million for FY 2009.
This audit will determine whether USAID/Sudan’s Maternal and Child Health Program is increasing access to quality maternal-child health services.

AUDIT REPORT NO. 4-650-11-010-P JULY 28, 2011Mon, 20 Jun 2011 11:48:36 -0500Audit of USAID/Sudan’s Modern Energy Services Program.http://developmentwork.net/component/sobi2/?sobi2Task=sobi2Details&catid=36&sobi2Id=116
Historical underdevelopment and decades of war and neglect have left southern Sudan with severe deficiencies in essential infrastructure. The Yei Electricity Program was launched in southern Sudan in 2005 and graduated from U.S. Government assistance during FY 2008. The Yei Electric Company now serves more than 325 accounts, benefiting more than 16,183 people. Physical infrastructure completed includes a powerhouse foundation and substation with lines to connect the city center. In 2009, electrification was planned to extend to two other towns. The U.S. Government plans to include renewable energy components in future electrification programs in order to mitigate unpredictable diesel fuel prices. Funding was $4 million for FY 2008 and $6.6 million for FY 2009.
This audit will determine whether USAID/Sudan’s Modern Energy Services Program is effectively delivering support for electrification in southern Sudan.

AUDIT REPORT NO. 4-650-11-003-P DECEMBER 29, 2010Mon, 20 Jun 2011 11:29:21 -0500Audit of USAID’s Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance Activities in Sudan.http://developmentwork.net/component/sobi2/?sobi2Task=sobi2Details&catid=36&sobi2Id=81
With the responsibility of facilitating and coordinating U.S. Government emergency assistance overseas, USAID’s Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA) provides humanitarian assistance to save lives, alleviate human suffering, and reduce the social and economic impact of humanitarian emergencies worldwide. More than 4.7 million people, including nearly 2.7 million IDPs, have been affected by the complex emergency in Sudan’s western region of Darfur since 2003. In response to the conflict, displacement, and insecurity, OFDA provided $93.3 million for programs throughout Darfur in FY 2009 and has obligated $11.64 million for programs in Sudan in FY 2010. This audit will determine whether OFDA’s activities in Sudan are providing humanitarian assistance and whether program results reported by OFDA are complete and accurate.

Upgrading the 192-kilometer Juba–Nimule road in southern Sudan is the principal road infrastructure activity under the Sudan Infrastructure Services Project, a 5-year, $700 million indefinite quantity contract through September 2011 with the Louis Berger Group Inc. OIG’s initial audit of the mission’s road infrastructure activities found that while the Juba–Nimule road was likely to achieve its main goals, the project was over budget and behind schedule.20 At the time of the audit, the road was already 8 months behind schedule, and the cost had risen from an initial estimate of $87 million to $163.8 million. Concerns remain that design and security issues could cause additional construction delays and cost increases. This audit will determine whether the Juba–Nimule road has been completed according to schedule and budget.
